After many dark days I am waiting for spring. Started this with a ballpen drawing (attached) and finished it in Affinity. Many layer fx and gradients used. I really like the possibility to insert different markers in the gradient panel - very helpful.
The idea was she is waking up from a deep sleep, the bird with her. Winter hasn't left yet but the little color-glows are already pointing towards spring.
Used a mix of muted colors and fresher accents.

Lol, many serious ideas and some fun stuff too.
I do tell people about AD because it is great value for money. Any software that will help me to finish a project quicker and better will be my best friend. I do not expect any silly stuff ( though the toaster sounded tempting ), but I just love the direct contact with the dev. Team.
I still would love to see my intelligent gradient vectors ( hear me Matt !! ;) ) but AD is on the right track. In our world we do get plenty of offers every day - free! Free! FREEEE!... Nope. Good work needs money, and if you are serious about your job/hobby you are willing to pay for it.
As I posted earlier: I do have a lot of licences for a zillion of apps for iOS/OS/ and android. I got many of them for free, many others I did pay for. It all started with the first iPhone, a whole new world of creativity. And I am very happy to see that mobile creativity is pushing the borders. AD is an important step, at least for me. Slick, stable, no fuzz, great results. AD is the basic Swiss Army Knife - when you really are in trouble it will do the job. And that's what counts.

I like the dynamic style of it. Knowing what Mike means about the clouds but I am sure you will come up with sth fresh.
Maybe just some very geometric faded/gradient clouds in the lower third? Style reminds me of the Tron concept art (in a good way).
Looking forward to see the final result.
